WELCOME NOTES

Dear Participants,

As the Chair for the International Symposium of Broomrape (Orobanche spp.) in Sunflower in Antalya, Turkey, I'd like to welcome you and to give some information on this event. Our symposium brings together a variety of sunflower researchers from government, commercial, and academic organizations worldwide to foster cooperation on sunflower and broomrape and to promote information sharing among researchers largely. The aim of our international symposium is present the newest

Page 4: International Symposium of Broomrape (Orobanche spp€¦  · Web viewSunflower breeding for resistance to the new broomrape race in the Krasnodar region of Russia. Gontcharov S.V.

research results and research goals, analyze present conditions and perspectives in Broomrape biology, plant host relationships and resistance breeding, chemical and other control methods in sunflower. As always, we also extend a warm welcome to all our colleagues in the sunflower research and industry who share our interest in improving information to increase the income of sunflower producers.

As organizers, we also would like to discuss in new project ideas on EU Research Framework and also on other international organizations. If you or your organization are interested in joining these discussions and taking part in preparing new projects, this will be great opportunity for further developments for sunflower research and these efforts will contribute to increase collaborationships at international level among us. In addition to the excellent program, the symposium provides an excellent environment to meet your peers in sunflower research, build relationships, and exchange lessons learned.

As one of beautiful cities in the world, first time visitors to Antalya are usually overwhelmed by the sheer beauty of the city and surroundings. Antalya is a city that manages to surprise and enthuse in equal measure, with reminders of Antalya's rich landscape and historical sites. Antalya which is Turkey's principal holiday resort is an attractive city with palm lined street and it is full of history with a beautiful coastline of beach has and rocky coves where the towering Toros mountains. There is sunshine for 300 days of the year in Antalya and it is perfect place for sunbathing and swimming or for sporting activities such as windsurfing water-skiing, sailing and also climbing, trekking, hunting and skiing on mountains, etc... We are sure that these symposium days and half day sightseeing tour will be enough to notice the beauty of Antalya province but not enough to discover it.

We wish you nice stay in Antalya for truly rewarding days.

Orobanche Resistance in Sunflower

Ana Höniges, Klaus Wegmann & Aurel ArdeleanUniversitatea de Vest „Vasile Goldis“, Arad, Romania

AbstractThis report will present the current knowledge of Orobanche-resistance in sunflower from the breeder’s view and from the biochemists’ view. A major difficulty for the breeder is the fast development of new pathotypes of Orobanche cumana, which overcomes the resistance of newly developed sunflower lines. The basis of increasing aggressiveness of Orobanche cumana pathotypes is discussed. Nevertheless, there is still great potential for resistance breeding in the genus Helianthus, since very different resistance factors are already known or shall be elucidated. A survey is presented on known resistance factors, like low stimulant, mechanical barriers and how they develop, phytoalexins, Orobanche seed germination inhibitors, inhibition of the exoenzymes of the Orobanche radiculae, in particular of polygalacturonase. In this context an interesting new approach may be found in the polygalacturonase-inhibitory proteins occurring in cell walls, which inhibit the invasion of pathogenic fungi. The need for molecular biological studies will be stressed. Interdisciplinary collaboration of the breeders with biochemists and molecular biologists may lead to more advanced breeding strategies.

Key words: Orobanche cumana resistance in sunflower, resistance factors, phytoalexins, polygalacturonase inhibitors.

Seed Conditioning of Orobanche in Agricultural Fields: Ecophysiological Aspects

It is widely known that Orobanche seeds need a conditioning phase of several days under suitable temperatures and wet conditions before being able to germinate in response to germination stimulants. However, this knowledge of seed behavior is solely based on in vitro experiments, while the conditions in the field may significantly differ from the conditions in Petri dishes. In a series of experiments we have shown that O. cumana seeds respond to the germination stimulant GR24 even without prior conditioning. The germination of non-conditioned seeds was not observed before, because the experiments did not last long enough to observe germination, since the non-conditioned seeds need a longer lag time before germinating after stimulant reception. These results are consistent with our hypothesis that, under certain field circumstances, non-conditioned Orobanche seeds may also germinate when a host root comes close to them, which may be significant in the understanding of Orobanche behavior in sunflower fields.

ABSTRACTBroomrapes (Orobanche spp) which belong to the family Orobanchaceae are obligate parasitic flowering plants. The main center of distribution is the Mediterranean basin where large areas are heavily infested. Yield losses due to Orobanche attack range from 5 to 100 % depending on the region and the crop. Some broomrape species were determined in some crops in the Eastern Mediterranean Region of Turkey. As results of survey studies conducted in the region; Orobanche aegyptiaca / ramosa were present in 27.72 % of the tomato greenhouses and 80 % of the tomato fields, Orobanche crenata and O. aegyptiaca /ramosa were present in 57.89 % of the fababean fields and 75.51 % of the lentil fields.Among the crops cultivated in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, sunflower cultivation has been gradually increasing from 2005. In 2005, sunflower sown area and production in the region were increased more than three times compare to 2004.There is not any record on broomrapes in sunflower fields in the East Mediterranean Region, yet. But broomrapes are considered a possible threat for sunflower fields in this area. Orobanche cernua Loef. cause

considerable damage all sunflower fields in Thrace region of Turkey and it may spread from the region to East Mediterranean region, easily. In addition, sunflower is also a host plant of O. ramosa L. and O. aegyptiaca Pers. Unfortunately, these species were found in some crops in the East Mediterranean Region and growers are not careful about dispersal of broomrape. Because of their small seeds are dispersal easly and their control is very difficult, all quarantine measures must be taken in Turkey immediately. Since the magnitude of the Broomrape problem is increasing every year in Turkey, a “National Broomrape Project” has been conducting colloboration of some governmental institutes and universities since 2006. After the studies of the Project, producers are going to be educated on preventive measures for dispersal of broomrape seeds.

ABSTRACT

Sunflower hybrids resistant to race F of O. cumana seldom show complete lack of broomrape attachment and emergence. The effects on yield of 4 resistant hybrids with that of two susceptible highly productive hybrids were compared. Incidence of plants with emerged broomrapes (BI), final degree of attack (FDA), seed and oil yields, and oil content were determined in naturally infested fields of two locations of southern Spain (2004-2006). Although resistance is generally expressed by low FDA, higher BI was observed in 2006, showing much dependency on the

environment. Vertical resistance of hybrid PR64A71 contrasted with horizontal resistance in Arango, Centurión and Olimpia, which showed higher FDA values in one heavily-infested field. Although year and location influenced yield variables, oil content mainly depended on hybrid. Cropping resistant hybrids in moderately-infested fields provided up to 11% seed yield increases. The high field potential of resistant hybrids is highlighted in heavily-infested fields since, despite the higher disease levels in the latter three hybrids, yield increases averaged 124 and 199% depending on water availability.

ABSTRACT

Sunflower broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr) continues to be one of the most important constraints in sunflower production in Spain. In the last

Page 20: International Symposium of Broomrape (Orobanche spp€¦  · Web viewSunflower breeding for resistance to the new broomrape race in the Krasnodar region of Russia. Gontcharov S.V.

ten years, genetic resistance has been the predominant strategy of control against O. cumana. However, the introduction of new resistance is frequently followed by the appearance of new virulent races overcoming that resistance. In this report, a combined strategy to control O. cumana is discussed, including: a) The use of IMI sunflower cultivars to control winter and early spring weeds and sunflower broomrape; b) The combination of vertical and horizontal resistance mechanisms in the same genotype in order to develop a more durable resistance, together with molecular studies to identify QTLs associated with broomrape resistance genes to facilitate the pyramiding of different resistance genes and the combination of different resistance mechanisms; c) The study of the variability and racial composition of Spanish sunflower broomrape populations using classical and molecular methods.

Broomrape is the parasitic plant that presents the major problem in sunflower production in Serbia. Since its first appearance in our country the species Orobanche cumana Wallr had been responsible for considerable yield loss in some sunflower growing areas. In Serbia broomrape is mostly present in Vojvodina province, where distribution and virulence groups of parasite are constantly monitored. Only two distinct broomrape populations currently exist in this part of country. According to previous research race B is dominant in south of the Vojvodina province and race E in the north. During 2008 set of 8 commercial hybrids with different broomrape resistance genes were sown in regions of Vojvodina and Central Serbia with sunflower production, on 34 different locations. Presence of broomrape was confirmed on 6 sites but occurrence of parasitic plants was not detected on hybrids resistant to race E. The survey of sunflower fields in regions where broomrape was not previously detected was also done. Survey revealed occurrence of broomrape in the new region. Infested areas are placed in Bor County near state border with Romania and Bulgaria.

One of the most dangerous parasites on the plants there is Broomrape (Orobanche spp) in Romania. On sunflower fields were identified the population of weedy broomrapes of Orobanche cumana Wallr. It was shown a significant dissemination, especially in the south and south-eastern area of the country. The behavior of some sunflower cultivars against O. cumana were studied under artificial inoculation and natural contamination conditions. In the artificial inoculation conditions, experiments performed at the Research Development Institute for Plant Protection Bucharest, hybrids HS 1900, Turbo, Justin and Favorit have showed an absolute resistance. In natural contamination at SC Sport Agra srl ,Amzacea- Dobrogea, best result have showed: Rigasol, Flores, Albani Florena, Sunay, Favorit, Festiv and Turbo.

ABSTRACT

Broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) is a parasitic plant, feeding on sunflower roots. During the last years some new, more aggressive races have been found in the different parts of the world (Spain, Turkey, Romania, etc.). A little bit later they appeared in Russia and we started a special breeding program. Previously one resistant line (VK 623) to the race F was found among the lines of the VNIIMK breeding. In a short time some new prospective sunflower inbred lines with resistance to both broomrape races – E and F were developed. Now they are on the way of being converted to the CMS-lines. However recessive character of this resistance create some difficulties in commercial sunflower hybrid breeding, so to obtain new donors of resistance in the future, the cultivated sunflower was crossed with H. tuberosus (used as a pollinator).

ABSTRACT

Spanish sunflower acreage is basically divided in 3 main and isolated areas, the Guadalquivir valley, Southern Spain, represents the 37 % of the total acreage, the Cuenca area located in Spain´s Central plateau, with 28% and the Castilla-León area, Northern Spain, with 29 %. Sunflower broomrape (Orobanche cumana, Wallr.) has been present in Spain since the 1960’s. From that time on, different waves of dissemination and dispersion of the parasite have been found. The latest correspond to broomrape race E dispersion in the early 1990’s and race F in the first years of 2000. These broomrape dissemination waves have been circumscribed only to the Guadalquivir and Cuenca areas. In the Castilla-León area, the presence of broomrape had not been noticed until now. In 2008, a highly virulent broomrape infection focal point (about 300 m2) has been detected in one sunflower plot near Medina del Campo (Valladolid), south of the centre of the Castilla-León area. Racial determination has proved that this broomrape inoculum belongs to race F.

The Wild Species Helianthus - Source of Resistance to the Parasite Orobanche cumana

M. Christov, R. Batchvarova, M. Hristova-CherbadzhiDobroudja Research Institute, BULGARIA

ABSTRACT

Eleven perennial species Helianthus, with different ploid level, and several hybrid forms of sunflower, with origin from crosses of wild species with cultivated Helianthus annuus L., were included in this research. The obtained hybrid forms and the new lines, created from them, showed resistance to different races of Orobanche cumana. Full resistance to the most virulent broomrape race, widely distributed in Bulgaria, showed the materials, obtained from crosses of the tetraploid H. decapetalus and crosses of the diploid H. divaricatus. The difference in the profile of resistant and non-resistant lines was proved by the RAPD method. Part of the new resistant lines participate in the creation of new hybrid sorts.

ABSTRACT

Broomrape (Orobanche cumana L.) is the biggest problem both in Turkey and in some Eastern European countries and also in Spain. The research covering broomrape tests of sunflower hybrids in the trials based on National Sunflower Research Project was conducted in Trakya region, which has 75% of sunflower production in Turkey in 2006, 2007 and 2008 years. Based on this project, in natural infested conditions 306 in 2006, 443 in 2007 and 533 genetic materials (commercial and candidate hybrids, inbred lines, etc..) tested in 2008 and from these tested materials, 12 of them in 2006, 56 in 2007 and 140 in 2008 were observed as resistant in the research. In winter time, broomrape tests continued in growth chamber and in the pots as artificially infested conditions. Broomrape seeds were collected from naturally infested area of Trakya

region , then used in to determine of the reactions of developed hybrids and lines against these races. At this part of study, 1752 in 2006, 816 in 2007 and 1389 in 2008 sunflower genotypes were tested. Based on these tests, 332 materials in 2006, 94 in 2007 and 404 materials were found as resistant to new races of broomrape in the study.

One of the directions in sunflower breeding is selection for the resistance to broomrape. The population of broomrape has been stable in Serbia for a longer period of time, but the racial composition has changed in recent years, with race E being predominant in the regions of north Backa and Banat. Cultivated sunflower is genetically narrow and deficient in many desirable genes. Its genetic variability can be increased by the use of wild sunflower species and interspecific hybridization. The resistance of 15 new experimental hybrids to broomrape was tested on locations in Serbia (Pačir) during three years (2006, 2007, 2008) and in Romania (Baraganu, Bralia) during 2008. These hybrids were produced by crossing female inbred lines (Ha-26PR-A, PH-BC2-92-A and Ha-98-A) susceptible to broomrape and new Rf inbred lines (RHA-D-2, RHA-D-5, RHA-D-6, RHA-D-7, RHA-D-8), developed from interspecies population originating from H. deserticola, and resistant to broomrape race E. All examined hybrids were resistant to broomrape on both locations. Since broomrape race F is present on location in Romania, it is expected that the new Rf inbred lines-male components of examined hybrids, have the resistance gene for race F also.

ABSTRACT

At virulence comparison of broomrape seeds collected on sunflower in Northern Caucasus in different years the populations Svetlogradskaya (Stavropol region, 2005) and Morozovskaya (Rostov region, 2006) were found as a high virulent for two resistant inbred lines of VNIIMK. The population Privolnenskaya (Krasnodar region, 2003) has shown the weakest virulence. Eight hybrids (different resistance against races A - E) were tested in field conditions against artificial infectious backgrounds of seeds from Svetlogradskaya and Privolnenskaya populations. The quantity of parasite stems appeared on the soil surface was counted. The sunflower variety Peresvet (VNIIMK) and a hybrid P 96 (resistant against race F in Spain) were tested at separate artificial inoculation by broomrape: race F (from Spain), the mixture of races F, G, H (from Turkey), also Svetlogradskaya and Privolnenskaya populations. The quantity of healthy tubercles was counted on sunflower roots after 30 days of growing. The all results confrontation let to make the conclusion: Svetlogradskaya and Privolnenskaya populations are represented by mixture of non virulent and virulent races for tested sunflower genotypes. But Svetlogradskaya contains a high percentage seeds of race F and insignificant admixture of the more virulent biotype. Privolnenskaya contains a high percentage seeds of race E and insignificant admixture of the more virulent biotype. The numerous tracks of died individuals of non virulent races were seen on roots of all experimental plants.

ABSTRACTProcera Agrochemicals Romania is a company that has developed a program for sunflower breeding, since 2004. One of the main goals of this improvement program is to obtain sunflower hybrids resistant to broomrape, as a consequence of the well-known fact that Romania has a constantly increasing incidence of soil-areas infested with this parasite.Sunflower hybrid PF100 is a semi-late hybrid that has genetic resistance to broomrape and is also genetically improved with resistance-genes to Sulfonyl Urea herbicides SURES-1 and SURES-2, for both male and female lines. PF100 has been tested in the Romanian official network of the State Institute for Variety Testing and Registration for the last two years (2006-2008). The results recorded showed that the seed production varied from 2348 kg/ha (Timiş county, 2005) to 4604 (Vaslui county, 2006) and the oil content in seeds was between 47-51%. In 2008, the highest seed yield of this hybrid (3700 kg/ha) was obtained in the tests trials from the demo-plots established at Viziru, Brăila county (one of the most infested county with broomrape).

(ORDC), Tehran, Iran.  ABSTRACT      Broomrape is one of the most dangerous parasitic plants for many crops. The communities of weed broomrapes were investigated from sunflower fields in Iran. In the sunflower fields the populations of weed broomrapes consists of plants of Orobanche aegyptica, O.ramosa, O.cumana and O.crenata. There are present in Iran but sporadically, other species of Orobanche. Method of control and management for each parasite were included: crop rotation, clean seeds, sowing dates, biological control, genetic resistance and herbicides. The behaviour of some Iranian sunflower cultivars (RT21, AS508, Hysun 33, Hysun 25, Euroflore, Record,...) to O. aegyptica attack was tested in the artificial inoculation and natural contamination. It could be noted that all hybrid cultivars and from OP, Record exhibited an absolute resistance. To eradicate this dangerous plant was and still is the aim of specialists worldwide. In order to diminish the negative effect of broomrape on sunflower yield, there were tested the next methods: herbicides: crop – rotation, deep ploughing, deep seeding or watering, biological control by trap – plants, insects(Phtomyza orobanche), fungi(Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. orthoceras), herbicides. The chemical method was proved to be a necessity for a modern agriculture. It was tested the efficacy of 5 variants of herbicides (Treflan 48 EC + Glyforom RV, Stomp 330 EC + Glyfogan 480 SL, Treflan 48 EC + Basta EC, Stomp 330 EC + Assert 250 EC, Stomp 350 + Basta EC) in 2 experimental field. The best results was with Treflan 48 EC (trifluralin 480 g/l) preemergent 2 l/ha + Glyforom RV (gliphosate 360 g/l) post emergent 0,2 l/ha + 0,3 l/ha applied at 40 and 60 days from

ABSTRACTThis research was conducted during 2004 - 2007 to estimate the parents and crosses showing superior general and specific combining abilities, F1’s hybrid vigor and genetic structure of a hybrid sunflower population in terms of phenological characters, agronomical traits, yield and quality characters and to identify suitable parents and promising hybrid combinations of resistance to Broomrape. Twenty five experimental hybrids were created using 5 cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) and 5 pollen tester (restorer) lines having different levels of resistance to Broomrape in sunflower. Field trials of the research were made at three different locations (Center, Ferhadanli and Banarli districts) in Tekirdag province. The experiments were designed in a randomized complete block with three replications.

According to the results, the general and specific combining ability (sca) variances were highly significant for all traits investigated except days to 50% flowering. According to the general combining ability effects obtained from the all locations, A3 (TTAE 4156A) for oil content, seed yield and oil yield were determined as the most suitable parents. The significant SCA effect and high mean values of hybrids combinations showed that A4 x B7, A3 x B7, A4 x B8, A5 x B6, A3 x B9 and A3 x B8 for seed and oil yields were promising hybrid combinations. It was found that A3 x B6, A3 x B7, A3 x B10 and A4 x B7 hybrids produced 20-25 % more oil yield compared with the average of control cultivars in some location. The results of Broomrape test indicated that, based on the commercial checks results, all trial areas were infested with the new races. In Ferhadanli, except Sanbro, all of the hybrids have showed lower attack degree. B10 male line was resistant to broomrape population in all locations. A3 x B6 and A3 x B7 experimental hybrids were found highly tolerant to the new broomrape races in all locations, instead of their parents’ susceptibility. Also, none of the B10 male

line hybrids were not showing any resistance to broomrape even at tolerant level.

As a results, genotypes A3 (TTAE 4156A), A4 (TTAE BAH8 A), B6 (RHA14) and B7 (RHA 20) were the parents involved in the best-yielding crosses. Among these parents, A3 and B7, which possesses a considerable positive GCA effect, might be utilized as a good parent in hybrid sunflower breeding programs. On the other hand, A3 x B6, and A3 x B7 might be considered as promising hybrid combinations for higher yield based on their heterosis and heterobeltiosis values, SCA effects and resistance to Broomrape.

ABSTRACT

The pathogenic composition of the broomrape populations has changed over the years, slowly at first, then rapidly in Eastern Europe, Turkey and Spain. In the last years, in Europe, new and aggressive populations of the parasite, have attacked sunflower crop, specially in Turkey, Spain, Romania, Russia, Ukraine and Bulgaria. In Romania there are three important areas infested with broomrape ( Orobanche cumana Wallr. ), different as infestation degree and presence of different virulent groups. A

new highly virulent population of broomrape has attacked sunflower in Romania in 2006 year. Many commercial hybrids belonging to different companies lost their resistance to this parasite. Sunflower genotypes, existing in Fundulea germplasm collection, used as differentials for the broomrape races, were tested with the parasite seeds collected from Romania, Spain, Turkey, Bulgaria and Ukraine. The spectrum of the broomrape races in these areas are different. Many genotypes, for some of them being known the reaction to the races in Spain or Turkey, were tested in Romania in 2008 year. The results have indicated a new and different virulent population of the parasite.

ABSTRACT

Broomrape (O. cernuıa) is one of the most serious hindrances in sunflower production throughout the Turkey and Eastern Europe. Previous and late studies have shown that imidazolinone (IMI) herbicides applied onto IMI

Page 35: International Symposium of Broomrape (Orobanche spp€¦  · Web viewSunflower breeding for resistance to the new broomrape race in the Krasnodar region of Russia. Gontcharov S.V.

resistant sunflower effectively controls O. cernua by rapid absorbtion, translocation and accumulation in the root attached parasite. However, susceptibility level of susceptible sunflower varieties to the herbicides has been an obstacle in application of these herbicides. Preliminary studies were conducted with susceptible sunflower varieties. But the best results obtained from single foliar treatment of Imazamox (35 g/l)+imazapyr (15 g/l), 43,75+18,75 g/ha was applied on IMI resistant sunflower plants 8-10 true leaf stage. The treatment caused serious damage to susceptible sunflower plants but no damage observed IMI resistant varieties and completely controlled O. cernua, resulting in a there-fold increase in sunflower seed yield over the non-treated control. In addition same treatment controlled key weeds that seriously harm sunflower production. Further studies are in progress to determine affectivity of other members of IMI herbicides application rates and timing. Broomrape (O.cernua) and weeds have infested and reduced yield in the sunflower production area with high economic level. But using IMI resistant and broomrape tolerant inbred varieties have suppressing and decreasing weed population and epidemics effectively in last there years.

Epiphitotic spread of broomrape in Serbia started in the begining of nineties and continues up to date. It is considered that new race was introduced by confectionery sunflower seed. Sunflower is endangered on the north of Bačka region. The main foci of hazard are areas under sunflower on the Subotica - Bačka Topola route, with a tendecy of spreading toward Senta and Čantavir, while the second direction is toward Čonoplja and Aleksa Šantić, and then to the south. Less intensive attack is also noticed in Banat around Padej, Itebej i Vršac. It is significant to underline that broomrape has appeared in new localities Svetozar Miletić, Mol, Novi Bečej and Zmajevo at which it had not been registered previously. The analysis of population showed that broomrape in Serbia belonged to race E of the parasite. Constant monitoring of broomrape population is very important due to changes in race composition and evolution of new more virulent races. The most reliable method for control of the parasite is cultivation of resistant sunflower hybrids including IMI resistant hybrids.
